  1. Depending when that was, they probably were and you just didn’t know it. They used to manufacture for the other big names
  2. The biggest error in the testing is still the method in which they are obtaining data. Measuring impact and rotational effects oh Helmets with different shapes using a form with uniform shape just isn’t a good method, unless something has changed since I last looked at it. This is why standardized testing methods exist. Keep your re-akt, so long as it’s tbe helmet that best fits your head

    I’m not missing any point. I was responding to the message I quoted. As far as your weight comment, I’ve used many a 420g carbon stick, some are great, some are shit. You differentiate yourself by being on the former end of that scale.

    Makes full sense then. My boss is French, so resin and resine at this point are interchangeable for me.

    Other patterns used to be offered, and they weren’t flying off the shelves then, that’s why they were discontinued. As mentioned by others, if you’re trying to build a brand, you start with the curves people know and use, not that one curve 8 people used to use and still have nostalgia for

    If he speaks French , I can see the spelling of Resin as Resine. I see it all the time.
  7. You should aim for the corners, not the goalies head. 😉
  8. Crazy. Just if Friday we were talking about Dick Dale in the lab and I played a bunch of his songs
  9. First game of this season I had one goal and three assists. I got credited for one goal and one assist on the sheet. Game 2 I had 0 goals and 1 assist, but got credited for 2 assists. Last game I had two and one, and got credited for 2 and 1. The only common denominator here is in all three cases I was never contacted by NHL scouts and I still had to just live my life the next day. its just beer league, you’re never going to get consistent refs. Just have fun
  10. Difference between a refresh and a full grind. We’ve already been over this
  11. So far I have the elbows and shoulders (top of line versions) and really like them both as good values. Perfectly happy with elbows, and mostly like the shoulder pads outside of how they rest on my collarbone. Definitely a fan of the line. Looking to try shins next!
  12. I had some gloves that were similarly irritating me. They seemed to stop after I had the gear sanisport cleaned, so maybe that’s something to look into
  13. Wow those lightning 3rds are bad. Looks like the arms were printed separately on a printer with the black ink cartridge running out
  14. For what it’s worth, I’m less annoyed with the sleeve than I originally thought I’d be, although I’m not one of the quoted people. Didn’t look too much into it, but I fee it can be removed fairly easy
  15. Not to mention, they probably want to use a chassis that exists today in a manufacturable state. Haven’t heard much from fizix in a long time
  16. Found another angle. Probably doesn’t hit the hand, but an inch or two from possibly being a serious injury.
  17. The way his glove comes off makes it seem like he gets more than just the stick. Potentially very dangerous, probably worth a fine, but I don’t think they’ll do anything
  18. It’s not clear from the photo, but I wonder if they’ve considered wear on the sides of the front of the skate, where most manufacturers put wear patches. The sides of the skate can take a beating in roller and I don’t see anything to mitigate that here
  19. Skated three days in a row and my knee held up pretty well. First time I’ve been able to do back to backs since I hurt it in January. Not 100%, but good to see some marked improvement! Now I just need this wrist issue to go away.
  20. They approach eachother from the front, and both drop the gloves. maybe instigator, but not suspension worthy.
  21. I don't see how only the shop can be considered in error here. it should NEVER be acceptable to just add padding to the toe of a custom skate to get the length right, and if I was in the business of custom skates, I would NEVER listen to a shop even if they were the ones requesting that. I have the feeling that some people would just defend True no matter what they do, and even after they have accepted responsibility. we get it, CCM and Bauer customs also have issues, but that's not the topic of debate here. In this case, their process and responses have let down the customer, not the other two companies.
  22. I don’t think they have enough customers to be worth an acquisition. It’s a nice niche product, but not at the level that a company would want to acquire them, especially if they are not going to use the technology
  23. I think he’s faulting true because their “fix” was just to use padded material to stuff the toe box. I’m pretty sure the LHS didn’t say “just stuff material in the toe box”
  24. He is also now in a Warrior bucket at camp too, so seems he’s fully made the switch. Asked him how he was liking the warrior gear and he said he loved it. Didn’t want to ask him any of the business end stuff however
  25. Interesting to see if it caries into the season. Makes sense if he likes the stuff as warrior is local
